Ask Dromund Kaas Overdue Conversation

[Darth Tempest]

Vahliri didn’t hesitate to hook an arm around Altair’s own, flashing the Tiefling the same confident, sideways smile that he had seen plastered across her face on a multitude of occasions. The half-Sephi didn’t know what possessed her to grab him, but she didn’t give it much thought and simply acted on impulse. Nevertheless, she purposefully watched to see if he would pull away or resist from it before she made any attempts to move.

Of course, that confident smile faded just a bit when Altair threw in a compliment of his own - instead replaced by the half-Sephi’s fluted ears swiveling subtly while the faintest bits of red tinted her bronze-hued complexion.

“Thanks,” She said with a soft smile, reaching up to pull a strand of her black hair out of her face. “What can I say? You give a girl a reason to get dolled up.” She threw in a playful wink with that. Despite the dirty looks it seemed to earn her from everyone else, the half-Sephi was habitually unconcerned about the fact that she was almost always overdressed in everyday situations. And hey - being the best dressed person in the room wasn’t a particularly bad thing.

Vahliri walked alongside Altair as they exited her room, beginning to make their way out of the Residence Hall - moving out towards the rest of Campus and the dining options that they had. “Not a thing,” She said after a long moment, breaking away from the Tiefling in order to walk backwards in front of him. She glancing up at Altair with a grin, that bit of mischief dancing in her eyes just as it did before she suggested stealing that boat back on Indupar. “More fun to figure it out as we go.”

After a few minutes of walking, they gradually started to pass a few different options - each ranging in price from dirt cheap to ridiculously expensive, reservation only options. Even if the price wasn’t necessarily a problem for Vahliri, the half-Sephi didn’t single out any of the high-Crown options - instead allowing her eyes to continue to flick between options.

“How about that one?” Vahliri paused, jutting her chin towards one restaurant in particular. There was a multi colored Neon Sign plastered on the front of the building, flickering with age and yet still largely eluminating the name TAFFA’S Burgers and Karaoke. There was a chalk-board sign just outside the restaurant, and Vahliri took a moment to give it a glance.

“Free meals to the best voted singer or pair in the house. But you gotta go with the house-picked songs.” She grinned, taking backwards and towards the entrance. “You up for it?” The half-Sephi looked ahead. “If not, I guess PizzaShack is still open.”

Altair was both surprised and pleased when she picked a casual burger joint instead of some fancy five star restaurant with Core cuisine. The tieling stared at the words karaoke before he grinned, “I’m not sure I ever heard you sing before,” He glanced over at her. He certainly didn’t know her to be shy, and he could easily picture her taking a hold of the mic and drawing the entire bar’s attention.

He held the door open for her as they stepped through. As per usual, a few customers looked up in surprise and borderline fear when they spotted him. Altair ignored it entirely, walking over to order his burger - a veggie one. Every now and then he attempted to emulate some aspects of the Emryc Thorne diet. The tiefling stepped away and waited for Vahl to order hers before he found them a table.

There was already a woman singing on stage and she sounded vaguely like a lothcat being run over. Altair also got a cup of soda and he drew from it while watching the woman with a slight grimace. He looked back at Vahl, “You feel like bein’ my singin’ partner tonight?”

[Darth Tempest]

That smirk on Vahliri’s lips tugged a bit wider when Altair followed her towards the Karaoke joint - her expression brightening visibly - just as happy picking out something casually and fun rather than some boogie Coruscanti bistro. The half-Sephi caught the grin on Altair’s lips, returning the expression accompanied by an arching of the half-Sephi’s dark brow. “Well, first time for everything.” She said, that gleam of confidence bright in her eyes.

Of course, the half-Sephi didn’t perform like Altair or flaunt her voice when anyone else was around - but that didn’t mean she wasn’t fully prepared to waltz up onto the stage and belt her heart out.

With that, Vahliri turned back to the entrance of the burger joint. The half-Sephi looked up at Altair when he held the door open for her in gentlemanly fashion. “Why thank you,” As she passed him, Vahliri idly reached up to toy with a loose strand of her black hair yet again - twirling it around her finger as a somewhat stupid smile lingered on her face.

The half-Sephi didn’t miss the looks that were thrown Altair’s way as they walked through the restaurant, and Vahliri didn’t hesitate to throw back some looks of her own. Whether it was surprise, genuine fear or mockery etched onto individuals faces, their gawking was very quickly met with the half-Sephi glaring daggers at them from afar until they got the hint. She stepped up to the counter after Altair ordered his burger. “Chicken burger, with extra Elbina peppers. Oh and a lemonade, please.” She flashed the worker behind the counter a smile before turning back from the counter, following Altair towards a table.

The half-Sephi glanced over towards the woman who was currently singing, unable to help the way her fluted ears flattened as the Pantoran (why does it always have to be a Pantoran?) belted out some

sappy song - the screechy high notes ringing loud and clear in Vahliri’s sensitive ears.

“Damn right I do,” Vahliri looked back at Altair, wiggling her brows a bit as she grinned up at him. “Didn’t I tell you already? We make a pretty kickass team.” She said, making clear reference to what she had told him back on Indupar.

“Let’s go after this chick.” Vahliri commented, drawing from the straw of her lemonade as the Pantoran continued to sing. Of course, the half-Sephi couldn’t help but blink a few time as she saw the next song qued up on the playlist above the stage - the same one they would be singing.

[Altair Din]

Altair couldn’t help but groan when the next song came on, “Ughhh this is the Core world people siren song,” He tilted his head back and rolled his eyes. Altair took another sip of his drink before glancing over at the stage, “Aight, let’s go,” He of course had no idea about Vahliri’s level of singing skill. In fact, this song wasn’t even a duet, so it’d be both of them singing it together just because.

The tiefling ignored the gasps and pointing as he walked towards the stage area. While he was shy about many things, performing was not one of them. His tail swished back and forth as he practically strutted up to center stage, grabbing a mic as the incredibly boring song began. Regardless of how much he despised the song, it was undeniable that everyone knew the words.

Altair began singing at once, his beautiful voice projecting confidently over the crowds. At first it was only him and he got the crowd’s attention. He glanced over at Vahliri, smiling a bit to encourage her to join in right then.

@Altaris

 

[Darth Tempest]

While Altair might’ve despised the song that was randomly picked for them, Vahliri had quite literally the opposite reaction. She blinked a few times as she read the name, only for her face to light up like a Life Day Tree as the realization hit her - her lips tugging upwards into a wide smile as she rose up from the table. Vahliri glanced over towards Altair as he groaned, shaking her head. “This song is awesome." Vahliri didn't care how cheesy or boring the song was - it was a classic and she loved it.

The half-Sephi flashed him another grin before following him from the table, making a beeline for the stage without a second thought. Whether it was true confidence or downright stubborn willpower, there was rarely a time when Vahliri was shy - and singing wasn’t an exception. Skill had largely nothing to do with that fact.

While she normally would’ve death-glared whoever was giving Altair shit for his appearance, Vahliri was too busy waltzing her way up towards the microphone to share her vocal talents with the entire restaurant. She eagerly stepped up onto the stage alongside Altair, grasping the microphone and bringing it up to her lips.

She allowed Altair to sing for a few seconds solo - his beautiful and melodic voice drawing the attention of most of the restaurant. Many of those who had stared in horror and surprise at the Tiefling’s appearance were left slack-jawed at his voice - and there was no denying the way that several of the girls watching were looking at the Tiefling - smiling and waving their fingers whenever he looked their way. And that was when Vahliri finally decided to step in - sliding into the middle of his performance to add her unique flare and make a duo out of the song.

Vahliri opened her mouth and began to sing.. And every single person in that restaurant - including Altair - would likely start to regret their decisions leading up to being in the same room as the half-Sephi at that moment. While the Pantoran might’ve sounded like a Lothcat being strangled slowly, Vahliri outright sounded like a banshee unleashed upon the Academy. Unlike her smooth speaking voice, she was pitchy and out of tune with every verse, lacking all of the melodic and beautiful grace of Altair’s own voice.

Vahliri, of course, was wholly oblivious to her own vocal shortcomings - those sensitive Sephi ears somehow immune to her own voice. Moreover, Altair would see that, for all the ways that Vahliri was downright awful, the half-Sephi looked like she was having a blast as she belted out the lyrics to that cheesy song. Her lips were tugged up into a wide and toothy smile as she sang out each word, eliciting some very unhappy looks from several of the restaurant patrons. Every few seconds, Vahliri glanced over at Altair - wiggling her brows and giving him a look as if to say ‘We’re doing great, right?’

@Sreeya

 

[Altair Din]

Altair was looking at the crowds, but his focus was mostly on Vahliri. At some point he saw her glaring and he followed her line of sight to a girl in the audience that was waving at him and flashing a smile. Within seconds Vahliri stepped up and began to…sing. The tiefling’s voice was almost entirely drowned out as she belted out the song. He winced a bit, but kept going, the audience collectively grimacing and some even groaning or complaining.

“Thank you!” He called out after the song was over, grabbing Vahliri by the hand and shuffling off stage before anyone could throw things and have her blow up the entire restaurant. Altair glanced back at Vahliri as they walked away from the stage, “Maaaybe we stick to watching the performances,” He smiled sheepishly at her. However, he didn’t sit back down, waiting till they were further away from the crowds and had a bit of privacy. Altair sighed as he looked down, a slightly disappointed look on his face.

“Vahl..” He began slowly, “Why do you do everything to make a show of it?” Altair looked up at her, “You didn’t care that the two of us were singin’, you just barged in when you saw some other girl lookin’ at me. At the party you didn’t care about dancing with me, you only cared that Aadya didn’t dance with me and you made a show of getting handsy with me in front of her. You always just grab on me when any other chick is lookin’. Just seems like I’m some toy to you that you want just ‘cause others want it too,” He sighed, stuffing his hands in his pockets. He remembered the first day they met and how Vahliri barged into his performance to take over and completely disrespected that he had been doing it to make tips. Even today, she had to make a show of it to take over the performance, “We ain't a team, Vahl, not when you always make everything about yourself. Not when you treat me like some kinda trophy to win over other girls.”

Altair shifted from one foot to the other, shocked at his own courage at saying all these things, “I… I got a lot of homework to do, so I’ll see ya around,” He said dejectedly before he turned to leave.

[Darth Tempest]

As soon as she started singing, Vahliri kept her eyes largely on Altair the entire time - belting out the lyrics alongside him regardless of how cheesy the song was. Of course, the fact that she was clearly enjoying herself and the song was quickly drowned out by the groans that came from the crowd - able to pick up on the displeasure even more clearly due to her own sensitive hearing. Her eyes flicked back towards the tables, and quickly faced back to Altair when she saw the grimances she was receiving from the crowd. It was even more pronounced compared to the way others had been practically on the edge of their seats for Altair.

For all the ways that the half-Sephi was confident and bullheaded to a fault, there was no denying the immediate shift in the girl’s expression and body language. She was completely embarrassing herself, and every pair of eyes in that building was glued to her or purposefully trying to block the half-Sephi out of their vision.

There was no denying the fact that the half-Sephi began to look visible uncomfortable the longer she was up there - though she forced herself to finish the song out rather than cutting it short early. When Altair grabbed her wrist and proceeded to drag her off, the half-Sephi didn’t struggle against him - shuffled off the stage quickly while keeping her eyes fixed straight ahead - blotting out anyone else who was looking at her. Her fluted ears flatted visibly, and the Tiefling would clearly note the redness on her cheeks.

For all the ways that Vahliri was volatile and prone to being aggressive, there was none of the characteristic fiery temperament and glares in response to the crowd's reaction. It wasn’t the same as snapping back at some catty girl or picking a fight with Aadya. She had climbed up onto that stage with the intention of having a good time and enjoying herself with Altair, and was thoroughly embarrassed at having ruined the entire thing.

“Yeah..” She said quietly, pointedly not looking at his face as he flashed her that sheepish smile. Vahliri didn’t question it as the Tiefling didn’t sit down and continued walking, dragging her off towards somewhere a bit more private. She simply assumed that he wanted to get as far away from the Karaoke patrons and all the attention her voice had drawn towards them.

She finally looked up when Altair spoke again, and the half-Sephi couldn’t help the way her eyes widened slightly and ears flattened when she noted the clearly disappointed look on the Tiefling’s face. The half-Sephi kept her eyes on him the entire time, listening to every word that was spoken. There were no irritated flicks of her ears, or any of the other signs that the half-Sephi was on the brink of some explosive episode.

“Altair I..” She started, though the words almost seemed to catch in her throat as soon as her lips parted. The half-Sephi swallowed down that lump in her throat, exhaling for a moment before she continued. “I wasn’t trying to make a show of this.” She said quietly, shifting a bit as she looked up at him. “I did care that we were singing together - I wasn’t just doing it because those other girls were looking.” The half-Sephi had largely kept her eyes on Altair as soon as she climbed the stage, and hadn’t thrown those familiar daggers or death-glares at the girls that had been cheering Altair on. And yet that didn’t change the fact that she had bulldozed her way into the performance - drowning the Tiefling out and making it about herself, taking up all the attention. Just like she had done back on Indupar. “Back on Taris..” She started, thinking back to that party. “I was jealous. I was jealous of Aadya, and the way you looked at her. I heard everything she said and.. I felt like I had something to prove.” As much as she wanted to pretend like they didn’t, those words Aadya had thrown in Vahliri’s direction had stuck with the half-Sephi and bothered her far more than they should have.

Vahliri watched as Altair turned to walk off, clearly noting the dejected tone in his voice. It was a sight that sent a distinct spike of pain into her stomach - twisting into uncomfortable knots within a split second. Without giving it any thought, the half-Sephi reached out - grabbing onto the Tiefling’s wrist before he was out of reach. She gave his wrist a tug, looking up at him. “You’re not,” She started, her voice a bit more firm than before - that flat and definitive tone returning in the slightest as she made her point. “..Just some trophy or toy for me, Altair. You’re more than that and..”

“I’m sorry.” She finally said. “I’m sorry, for being so jealous around Aadya and everyone else. And for making everything about myself.” Vahliri lingered like that for a few more seconds, her honeyed eyes flicking away from his to stare down at the hand that was grasping his wrist. “I want us to be a team, Altair.” She paused, chewing on her bottom lip. “And I don’t want you to leave..”

And yet she wasn’t going to stop him. After a moment, Vahliri finally looked back up to him and loosened her grip on his wrist - allowing her fingers to fall back to her side - giving Altair the opportunity to walk off if he so chose.

@Sreeya

 

[Altair Din]

Altair paused when she began to talk. As frustrated as he was, she was one of the first people he had met coming into Sith. She was his friend before anyone else he had met there, and she was a part of the squad. He couldn’t bail on her like he could with just anyone. The tiefling was silent as she spoke, stuffing his hands in his pockets and standing there as Vahliri laid out her perspective. He was surprised to hear her outright admit to being jealous and being vulnerable. Altair looked down at his feet for a moment before looking at her.

“Vahl..” He sighed, “We ain’t datin’,” He said with a bit of difficulty, “I told you I ain’t into that right now. But anywhere we go, you act like we datin’,” Altair stepped forward at last and he reached out to grasp her hand, “I really care ‘bout you, Vahl. But you actin’ out all the time just pushes me away...it pushes everyone away,” Altair explained quietly, squeezing her hand, “I know…I know how you feel..” He looked away again, “I just don’t know what to do about it. I don’t wanna hurt you.”

A part of him told him to bolt in the other direction. This stuff gave him anxiety and lately he found himself surrounded by it. His tail was doing nervous twitches and he felt a sense of unease throughout his entire body. He realized he was holding Vahliri’s hand with a vice grip before he finally released it, stuffing his hands back into his pockets.

@Altaris

 

[Darth Tempest]

As soon as she released the Tiefling’s hand, Vahliri allowed her honeyed gaze to fall down to her feet - staring blankly at the ground for a few moments before rising back to meet the Tiefling’s violet gaze. She knew that he was upset - and it had given her motivation to openly admit that she had been jealous of Aadya and others. And yet a part of the half-Sephi hated just how vulnerable it made her in that moment.

The half-Sephi exhaled softly through her nostrils when Altair spoke, allowing the words to sink for a few moments of silence. “I know that..” She said quietly. He had told her as much back at his dorm. She knew the Tiefling wasn’t interested in that kind of relationship right then - perhaps he never would be with her - regardless of the jealousy or feelings that she had. Regardless of the part of her that wanted things to be different.

She couldn’t help but pause when Altair stepped forward to grasp her hand, blinking a few times as her gaze snapped between his eyes and their joined fingers. After a few moments, the half-Sephi returned the squeezing of his hand - grasping his fingers tightly as he spoke.

The half-Sephi was silent for a long moment after the Tiefling spoke, her eyes lingering on his for a while before shifting to stare off into space.

“You know how I feel about you, and I care about you..” There was no sense in denying that fact that was plain to see. She exhaled softly, turning back to look at him before she continued. “And I don’t want to lose you. I want to be around you, Altair.. Even if it isn’t anything more than that. Even if we aren’t dating.”

“I am sorry for how I’ve been acting.” She said after a long moment, idly tracing her thumb across the Tiefling’s hand as she spoke. “I won’t keep lashing out.” It was a promise as much to herself as it was to him. “Because pushing you away is the last thing I want.”

@Sreeya

 

[Altair Din]

Altair could tell the words stung, and in many ways they stung him too. He struggled with this badly, and there was always a barrier in the way. His mind briefly wandered back to the last time he had let a girl in and how it had completely and utterly devastated him. It was something that shaped him and drastically changed his mindset to where he didn’t even control when the barriers went up. Altair glanced down where their hands were joined. After a moment, he stepped forth and pulled her into an embrace, tightly wrapping his arms around her.

“When I first did this on Indupar,” He spoke quietly with his face buried in her hair, “I never thought I’d see you again. Figured I caught your attention just by dancin’ and you'd forget me,” Altair laughed softly as he drew back just a bit, his gaze lingering on hers. The desire to kiss her was almost overwhelming, and he had done it just hours prior. And yet he hesitated, one of his hands resting against the side of her face. He was more confused now than ever, his mind racing. They had slept together and crossed every boundary they had, but did that ruin their friendship? Did she secretly resent him?

"I don't wanna lose you either, Vahl.." He said barely above a whisper, not stepping back from her.

@Altaris

 

[Darth Tempest]

Vahliri couldn’t help but let out a long exhale as she finished speaking, releasing a breath that the half-Sephi didn’t quite realize she was holding that whole time. She allowed her gaze to linger on Altair for a few seconds more before shifting to stare down at their conjoined hands, idly rubbing her thumb across his knuckles for a few seconds.

It was clear that the words stung, and yet Vahliri knew that each and every one of them was justified. She knew exactly where Altair stood and the kind of relationship he wanted, and she knew now that her frequent outbursts only drove him further away from her. And it was that thought that caused those knots to twist in her stomach. There was a part of the half-Sephi that simply wanted to withdraw away. A part of her wanted to resent him and leave it at that - to close off and not allow herself to be as vulnerable as she inexplicably was around him. And yet that part of her seemed so distant and quiet at that moment. She knew that she didn't resent him, and that she wouldn’t pull away.

Not from him.

Her eyes widened when Altair stepped forward, pulling her into that tight embrace. Within a split second, Vahliri’s entire body seemed to relax into the Tiefling’s arms - melting into that embrace as the Tiefling buried his face into her hair.He would be able to smell the floral perfume that the half-Sephi always wore, and the Tiefling would be able to feel the way that Vahliri held onto him tightly - her arms wrapping around him as she sunk into that embrace.

Vahliri drew back slightly after only a moment, unable to help the way she smiled up at the Tiefling as he spoke - flashing him that sideways smile that he had seen from her a hundred times or more. “Fat chance I’d ever forget you,” She said, laughing softly. “You’re stuck with me until further notice.”

She allowed her gaze to linger on his own for several long moments, honeyed eyes meeting that violet gaze and refusing to budge in any other direction. The half-Sephi almost involuntarily leaned her cheek into the Tiefling’s hand that was brought up to rest against the side of her face - that little gesture far more tender than she could say. She stared up at him, that desire to close the distance and to kiss him burning bright.

Vahliri listened when Altair spoke, his whispers clearly reverberating in the half-Sehpi’s sensitive ears. After a single moment, Vahliri brought a hand up to cup the Tiefling’s cheek - lightly running her fingers across the side of his face.

“Then don’t.” She said barely above a whisper, returning to look away from him as those words passed from her lips. Without another word, the half-Sephi leaned in close to Altair - closing that last bit of distance between them to capture the Tiefling’s lips. Her arms came up to wrap around the Tiefling’s shoulders, holding him close and sinking into that embrace for as long as she could.

@Sreeya

 

[Altair Din]

All logical thought turned to mush as Vahliri looked at him and reached a hand up to cup his face. His tail eagerly swayed back and forth involuntarily. Threads of thoughts and ideas attempted to tell him this was probably going to bite them both, but they evaporated the longer he stared at Vahliri. Altair could tell what was going to happen, and he had no desire to stop it. His heart began to beat rapidly, and he felt that familiar rush again. It hadn’t changed since the first day he had met her.

He closed his eyes as she captured his lips, and he tugged her close to himself. Altair’s tail came around to coil around her, brushing along her lower back and holding her in place before it swayed back again. He sank into the kiss, savoring those familiar lips all over again. Altair lingered there for a moment before he drew back, his body set ablaze, “I want you..” He murmured softly to her, desire clear in his eyes and the way his hands traced along her body.

Altair drew back after a moment, flashing her a half grin as he grasped her hand and tugged her along with him. He led her until they were outside the building and he looked around to ensure no one was watching. He gave a simple jut of his chin upwards to signal what he was about to do before he casually swept Vahliri up in his arms. He coiled the Force around himself before he leapt up to an upper ledge of the building before he jumped once more to land on the flat roof. Altair gently set her down, glancing around at their new height before looking at her again.

The tiefling kept his gaze on hers, stepping toward her as he gently reached over to slide the jacket off her shoulders, never breaking eye contact. It was abundantly clear he had no intention of waiting to get back to either of their dorm rooms for this.

@Altaris

 

[Darth Tempest]

In that moment, it was so easy to let the rest of the Galaxy gradually fade into the background - forgotten and irrelevant to precisely what was in front of her now. The half-Sephi couldn’t deny the way that her mind raced at a million minds an hour seconds before - how a dozen different voices in her head warned of how this might come back to bite them in the ass. How she risked only being hurt in the end. And yet it all evaporated Vahliri stepped closer to Altair. Evaporated until the only thing left in her minds eye was the Tiefling himself, and the desire that burned bright in her dark, honey-hued eyes.

She clearly noted the way that Altair’s tail swished and flicked, those involuntary movements always seeming to speak louder than his words ever could. Her own desires were clearly visible for Altair to see - from the sultry look that burned in her almond-shaped eyes, to the clear ways her fluted ears swiveled and twitched as she stared up at him. A part of her wondered if he could feel the way her heart pounded, given how clearly she could feel it thundering against the confines of her chest and drumming in her ears.

There was no hesitation as the half-Sephi stepped forward - capturing Altair’s lips and tugging him close to her body. She sank deeply against that embrace - savoring the taste of his lips just as hungrily as she had the first time. She felt the heat of his breath against her own, and couldn’t help the goosebumps that traveled across her skin as the Tiefling’s tail coiled around her torso and brushed her lower back. Every sensation sent jolts of electricity that coursed through her body, fanning out and sinking to where her blood ran molten. It set her entire body ablaze, burning with the same intensity it always had for him.

She exhaled softly when Altair broke away from her lips, biting back the desire to grab him and pull him back into that prolonged embrace. The half-Sephi heard the words reverberate against her sensitive ears, and felt the hands that traced up the sides of her body. She didn’t say anything in response, but her own desires were plain to see. Plain to see in the way that she looked up at the Tiefling. Plain to see in the way that her hands trailed up the Tiefling’s front, and her hips pressed wantingly against him.

Vahliri couldn’t help but blink as the Tiefling drew back further, flashing a grin as he tugged the half-Sephi along - not resisting as he led her outside the building. She couldn’t help the slightly confused expression that was plastered across her face for a moment, but it quickly faded as Altair jutted his chin upwards - realization of what he was planning finally dawning on her. As soon as the Tiefling swept her up into his arms, Vahliri wrapped her arms tightly around his shoulders and clung to him - burying her face against his chest. It was the same way she had grabbed onto him back on Indupar when he’d jumped onto the rooftops of Dahonis City, and it was clear that she hadn’t grown any more accustomed to being swept through the air.

The half-Sephi flashed him a smile when he gently set her down, a hand lingering on the Tiefling’s chest as she took a moment to glance around their new setting. Secluded and private in its own way, and yet the brush of the breeze against her neck a reminder that they were only a few stories above the rest of the academy - far more exhilarating than the half-Sephi ever realized.

Vahliri watched as Altair stepped forward, moving in to gently slide the leather jacket off of her. The half-Sephi shrugged her shoulders slightly as he did so, allowing the garment to fall off of her and be discarded entirely. She kept her eyes on him the entire time - never breaking contact as he moved in close. There was a clear desire that burned in her gaze, and it was abundantly clear that she knew exactly what she wanted, and had no intention of waiting to get back to either of their dorm rooms.

She stepped forward once again, hooked one of her hands around the Tiefling’s neck in order to pull him in close once more. Her lips pressed hungrily against his own for a moment before breaking away, tracing down his jaw and working her way towards his neck. Her other hand moved shamelessly from her side, sliding up the Tiefling’s thigh, across the front of his pants and up towards the button that kept them resting on his waist - not hesitating to unbutton the jeans and zip down his fly. Her fingers hooked beneath his pants and whatever he was wearing underneath, giving both a firm tug in order to pull them well below the Tiefling’s waist.

“I want you..” She murmured against his neck, following up her words with yet another nibble of his skin. “Right here and now.”
